In this irresistible marriage of water colourist's sketchbook and
traveler's guide, Virginia Johnson lovingly captures the magic of
one of the world's most storied regions, the French Riviera. We
walk the Promenade des Anglais in Nice. Shop for handmade sandals
at Rondini in Saint-Tropez. Visit the Madoura workshop in Antibes,
where Picasso discovered his genius for pottery. Meet legendary
characters like Pierre Gruneberg, a swimming instructor who taught
Jean Cocteau, Brigitte Bardot, Paul McCartney, and many others.
Saturated with the limpid colours of sea and sun, the dazzling
greens of verdant gardens, and the rose and ochre of sunbaked
villas and joyous with paisleys and blue-striped sailor's shirts
and the riotous look of a patisserie window filled with
confections, Travels Through the French Riviera is a gift book of
visual wonder, the souvenir every Francophile will want. But it is
also a quirky yet singularly useful travel guide, whether showing
how to order coffee like a local, plan a beach day at Menton, or
hike the Cap Ferrat peninsula or where to taste the best ice cream
in Antibes (at Amarena - try the mint).
